Belén García hungry for more at Spa-Francorchamps

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Hot on the heels of her maiden points at Motorland Aragón, #belengarcia is ready to get back behind the wheel of the 360 #racing Team's #25 Ligier JS P320 with British teammate #markrichards. Together, the two drivers will have one single goal: accelerate their upward trajectory in the #michelinlemanscup with another strong result at #spafrancorchamps.
 

On the strength of her successful start both on and off the track, #belengarcia heads into the penultimate round of the #michelinlemanscup calendar, intent on confirming her rapid rise through the endurance #racing ranks. After a brilliant performance which saw her finish fifth in Motorland Aragón, the native of L'Ametlla del Vallès now heads to one of the most iconic tracks in motorsport, #spafrancorchamps.
 
"I’ve already been once to Spa, but I don’t really have much experience there”, says Belén. “We didn’t run a lot there when I was competing in the W Series, and all the running happened in the wet. I feel more comfortable in the wet now, so I’m prepared for anything, and everyone knows the weather can change quickly at this track. It seems like it will be a weekend in the dark, so we might have to improvise and work on being flexible but it is something we all have to deal with. I am also confident after testing in all sorts of mixed conditions in Portimão, where I felt ultra-fast, so we’ll see how it goes and I'm truly looking forward to enjoying any conditions we’ll have!"
 
Dreaded and feared by its very nature, the Belgian circuit is also one of the most demanding ones on the planet with its elevation changes and technical corners putting the emphasis on set-up and driving finesse. Hard working as ever, the 24-year-old driver focused on the many challenges awaiting to leave no stone unturned with the assistance of the Centro De Alto Rendimiento in Sant Cugat del Vallès.
 
“I did my usual preparation, mainly focusing on training and sim work, but this round has more significance for me as I had a huge crash there in 2021”, explains Belén. "I felt like I needed to work on my mental approach, so I’ve trained slightly differently for this one. I’ve always used the psychology aspect of the sport as I think it's tremendously useful to be in a good mindset and headspace. We’ve done everything needed to put ourselves in a position of control to anticipate anything that can happen there. We will also race with Dilano in our hearts, so we worked a lot as it made things more real. Now, I honestly feel ready to go, even if I know it will be hard in some ways.”
